                A girl in a basket palanquin

                This may be a shitekago because the straw curtain seems to be rolled up. This kind of palanquin was made simply of four bamboo poles and braided bamboo sticks with straw curtain attached. The palanquin bearers had no set uniforms but carried ikizue (breath sticks) to regulate breathing. ==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:unknown, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number88‐47‐0]

                  A family celebrating their child

                  The boys are probably brothers with their older sister. They wear haori coats and hakama trousers. The woman holding the younger brother on her knees is probably the mother and the woman on the right her mother-in-law. A woven bamboo basket containing rice cakes or perhaps chimaki dumplings is nearby. This is probably a photograph to commemorate a Meiji Period Shichi-go-san children's day festival, because the padded clothing indicate early winter.==Date:unknown, Place:unknown, Photo:Usui Shuzaburo, (Credit:Nagasaki University Library/Kyodo News Images) [Cabinet Number94‐2‐0]
